Our Team
We have striven to build a team of highly qualified and enthusiastic tutors and support staff. This elite team is the foundation of our success.
David CHU | Principal
Principal David Chu has been a pioneer in youth mathematics education in Australia for nearly a decade. A graduate of Tsinghua University, he distinguished himself with exceptional mathematical talent and was selected for China’s Mathematical Olympiad training camp. After more than ten years of entrepreneurship in the biomedical and informatics industries in China, he chose to move to Australia, devoting himself to youth mathematics education—particularly the highly challenging field of Olympiad mathematics. He firmly believes that inspiring students’ intrinsic passion for learning is far more important than mere knowledge transmission. As the founder of Quantum Education (QE), Principal Chu has combined the strengths of Chinese and American Olympiad training philosophies with the learning styles of Australian students, creating a comprehensive curriculum that spans from introductory Olympiad mathematics to advanced high school levels. He has remained firmly committed to frontline teaching, delivering more than 5,000 hours of lessons and personally guiding hundreds of students on their Olympiad journey. Recognising the profound influence of mathematics as a foundational discipline, he not only imparts problem-solving techniques but also cultivates genuine curiosity and a spirit of scientific inquiry. In 2019, he introduced the prestigious United States of America Mathematical Competition (USAMC) to Australia and, as the official partner, has tirelessly promoted its growth. Within just six years, participation increased thirteenfold—opening doors for Australian students to world-class academic platforms while greatly enhancing their enthusiasm and sense of pride in mathematics. Under his guidance, more than 50 students have been selected for Australia’s National Mathematics and Informatics Olympiad training camp (School of Excellence), and several have gone on to represent Australia in national teams across mathematics, informatics, physics, and artificial intelligence. Many of his outstanding graduates have continued their studies at the world’s top universities, including Princeton, the Wharton School, Stanford, MIT, Cambridge, and Oxford. These achievements are not only the pride of his students but also the strongest testament to his educational philosophy. Beyond teaching, Principal Chu actively contributes to the broader education and community services. As a member of the Mathematical Association of Victoria (MAV), he participates in policy discussions to advance the development of mathematics education. He also serves with the Rotary Club Youth Committee, supporting initiatives that foster the growth and wellbeing of young people. Principal David Chu is more than an accomplished educator—he is a mentor deeply devoted to his students, dedicated to igniting their lifelong passion for learning. Through his work, he continues to build bridges for every child with a dream in mathematics, guiding them toward greater heights.
Paul LIN | Head of Teaching
Paul Lin holds a degree in English Language and later completed a postgraduate degree in Media and Journalism at Monash University in Melbourne. Before transitioning to education, Paul worked as an international news editor for various media platforms, including television and newspapers in China. His insightful ideas, strong subject knowledge, and passion for learning have made him a highly respected educator at QE. Paul began his teaching journey over ten years ago when he started homeschooling his own child. This experience sparked a deep appreciation for education and inspired him to pursue teaching as a lifelong career. In addition to leading the English program at QE, Paul also teaches Primary Maths. His structured, clear, and engaging teaching style has helped many younger students build a strong foundation and grow in mathematical confidence. Specialising in EAL (English as an Additional Language), Paul understands how students from non-English-speaking backgrounds can effectively adapt to the Australian way of learning. He has successfully helped many students achieve excellent results in the AEAS test, guiding them toward placement in top Australian schools. Paul’s supportive approach and cross-disciplinary experience make him a valuable mentor across subjects.
